By Elizabeth Bard, 2010

ISBN 031604279X

Elizabeth Bard was a twenty-something New Yorker on the fast track who had lunch in Paris with a handsome Frenchman--and never looked back. She soon discovers that learning to cook and building a life abroad have a lot in common: How do you put the recipe (or the 5-year plan) aside and learn to experiment?Can you develop a taste for the new without leaving yourself behind? As Bard navigates the ups and downs of life in her adopted country, she is forced to revise her standard recipes for love, pleasure, and success.

Along the way, she introduces readers to bustling markets, bad tempered butchers, and heavenly chocolate shops through the eyes of an American turned Parisienne. Part love-story, part wine-splattered family cookbook, Lunch in Paris is an adventure for the home cook, the gourmet-minded traveler, and any woman who has ever suspected that lunch in Paris could change her life.
